This is a place for our international family to meet, share recipes, and remember special meals together. We are American, Euro-mutt, Mexican, Goan, Indian, Greek and New Zealanders. Some of us sure know how to turn up the heat in the kitchen....the rest of us keep trying.

BTW, Elena was lazy this year and only made about 12 different kinds of cookies for her holiday cookie extravaganza instead of the 20ish she usually makes. So if Elena the cookie-godess says they are the best ever, she probably knows what she's talking about!

1. Preheat oven to 400 F.2. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.3. Mix in rest of wet ingredients, then add flour one cup at a time. do not chill the dough.4. Cut 1/8 inch thick and cook for 6-7 min for chewy, 8-9 for a browned butter effect (quite yummy)!
